Duty cycle
The maintenance intervals refer to the effective operating hours of the prod-
uct at a duty cycle (ED) of 100%. The duty cycle always refers to the entire
process. This means that the duty cycle of specific axes cannot be considered
individually.
Duty cycle
100% 80% 60% 40% 20%
2000 2,500 3,300 5,000 10,000
6,000 7,500 10,000 15,000 30,000
10,000 12,500 16,500 25,000 50,000
20,000 25,000 33,000 50,000 100,000

Operating conditions
Normal operating conditions are assumed, which correspond to the parame-
ters defined by Güdel when designing the product. If they are rougher than
assumed, products may fail earlier. Adjust the maintenance intervals to your
operating conditions if necessary.
With prudent operation you can protect your product. Observe the permissi-
ble performance limits of the product.
Avoid, in particular:
• Operation near or above the permissible performance limits
• High acceleration and resulting vibrations and operating forces
• Abrasive and/or corrosive environmental conditions
• Long duty cycles
• Always the same axis positions under high load
